About A to Z Machine
Your complete CNC machining and fabrication source
A to Z Machine is a large-scale, full-service machine shop located in Appleton, Wisconsin. We proudly build long-term partnerships and industry-specific manufactured goods with ultimate precision and efficiency. Our sprawling campus includes three buildings: one dedicated to welding and fabrication, one to production machining, and our largest building houses our job shop machinery.
Our three facilities have a combined total of over 100,000 square feet of manufacturing space with over 60 different machining centers of varying capabilities. We have more than 130 employee owners spread across two shifts.
Founded by machinists for machinists
Founded in 1996, A to Z Machine began with a team of co-owners. In 2019, we expanded to an employee-owned leadership team so every team member could have a voice. Our Employee Stock Ownership Program (ESOP) allows our machinists to be part-owners of the company, resulting in an enhanced sense of responsibility to provide the highest quality parts and services.
